  Sorry I don't think this is implemented. Basically it's PSVI
add-on to the validated tree and that's a very sensible topic,
there is no PSVI support in libxml2 at this point.

Because DTD are part of XML-1.0 you can rely on them. XSD are an add-on 
with an awful lot of dark corners, I would not rely on it too heavilly.
C14N has no dependancy on XML Schemas as far as I can tell
  http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-c14n#bibliography
you can't expect XSD attribute or element defaulting when processing C14N .
